2024 Fantasy Outlook
Marte capped a productive season with an even more impressive postseason run. He posted a career-high 650 regular-season plate appearances while recording a 127 wRC+, the third highest of his career. Contact continued to be Marte's calling card, though he did log the second highest walk rate of his career. His power rebounded after a down season, but Marte's xSLG suggests he was a bit fortunate in that department. Marte swiped eight bags on 10 attempts, but he was one of the few players not to take better advantage of the new rules. For the second straight season, He lowered his strikeout rate while walking at a higher clip, helping maintain one of the top two spots in the Diamondbacks lineup, resulting in the second most runs and RBI of his career, both bettered only by his production in 2019 when Marte took advantage of the happy fun ball. Marte played almost exclusively at second base, losing outfield eligibility. Marte will have a hard time matching last season's power, but he offers a bankable floor with batting average stabilization. Read Past Outlooks

ANALYSIS
Marte has hit safely in all five Cactus League games, going 8-for-13 with three extra-base hits. He will be Arizona's primary second baseman for a third consecutive season in 2024. Since moving to the keystone in 2022, Marte has played 137 and 150 games in successive seasons. Prior to moving full-time to second base, he was bedeviled by hamstring issues when the Diamondbacks made him a full-time center fielder from 2019 to 2021.

Stat Review
How does Ketel Marte compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

For the second straight season, Marte dealt with hamstring issues. In 2021, he incurred two IL stints, but played well. Last year, Marte played hurt and avoided the IL, but his production suffered. His 18.1% strikeout rate was the highest of his career and 41st percentile sprint speed dropped his infield hit rate to its lowest mark. Marte hit a career high number of fly balls, but with a lower exit velocity, fueling a career low .276 BABIP. Marte is entrenched as the Diamondbacks second baseman, though he played a lot of designated hitter last season to manage his hamstring woes. He's posted a 150 and 140 wRC+ in two of the previous four seasons, so he can be productive, but two consecutive summers dealing with lingering hamstring issues is concerning. A clever approach is buying the injury dip but taking advantage of so many players having second base eligibility and baking a hedge into your lineup.
